Simplify Your Supply Chain: How to Find One Supplier for All Your Apparel Needs
There are thousands of promo suppliers out there, not to mention decorators. While it’s great to shop around for your client’s specific needs, working with multiple suppliers and orchestrating third-party decoration can get complicated and opens the possibilities for order delays and miscommunications.
Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a one-stop-shop supplier and decorator for all of your apparel needs? You’re in luck – there is! Simplify your supply chain by looking for these features when determining which supplier can be counted on for every apparel and decoration request that comes your way.
Product Assortment
Look for both popular styles and premium retail brands.
The most important consideration when consolidating suppliers is product assortment. After all, if a supplier doesn’t have all the styles and brands your clients request, you’ll be back to shopping around for another who does. When judging a supplier’s product assortment, ask yourself these key questions to determine their versatility:
- Do they offer all the major apparel categories?
- Do they offer apparel that can work with any price point?
- Do they offer standard styles as well as premium retail brands?
